Little Red Jazzyhood

It's always a lesson in planning and patience when trying to get a dog to do certain things. 

I am working on my new book, "Little Red Jazzyhood", a parody of Little Red Riding Hood, but in which the wolf is just a dog named Wolf. Wolf is a bully and in the end goodness will win out. 

Here are some photos from the creating of the book.

Evie in the woods, looking at everything but the camera.

Grandma had to be coerced into staying in the bed. Treats were plenty for this shot.

It doesn't help the shot when the photographer (me) breaks the prop.

I wanted Evie to jump towards the chest. After several tries, and moving the treats around, we did it. 

My wonderful neighbor let me use her porch for the last scene of the book.  Here are the pups taking a break with my neighbor's daughters. 

Jazzy doesn't like holding anything in her mouth except sticks.  The bone was no exception. All she wanted to do was drop it and eat it. 

Same as above. I was trying to get a picture of her walking with the bone.  Eventually, patience and persistence paid off.  You'll have to get the book when it's out to see the final version.
